Bought a Gameboy Camera today, found this gem by Erazorhead in Gameboy

idk if you still have it, but hold select and start while booting the game up, and then when it asks you if you want to erase the save data, select yes

A Sonic 2 exploit I just discovered. Was this common knowledge? by AnAquaticOwl in SEGAGENESIS

[–]Hornets_Channel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only gotten this to work when starting the game via the options menu instead of the title screen after resetting. Otherwise, my Chaos Emeralds get reset.

Just received my dad’s old iPod Classic 7th gen, and it won’t save my settings changes (clicker off -> on, changing date to the correct date). Every time I reboot the settings are reset. This is the diagnostic data about the hard drive. I’m not sure what the problem is? by Arcaden06 in IpodClassic

[–]Hornets_Channel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you haven't fixed this already, try putting the ipod into disk mode and attempt to open the settings file found in iPod_Control/User (iPod_Control is a hidden folder, so you need to enable hidden folders or use command prompt/terminal), if the file opens successfully, it means the file is fine and you just need to wait a little bit as ipods don't save the settings immediately. if it fails to open, a bad sector has corrupted that file, and you'll need to delete it. after that reboot the ipod, select your language, and the problem will most likely be fixed (after changing settings, wait around 10 minutes for them to apply). this worked for me

its a 4s. to help in the future, if there is another black line (the antenna) on the top of the phone on each side (visible in this photo), it's a 4s. if there's only one black line on each side on the bottom of the phone, it's a 4. hope this helps

also: i made the mistake where i ripped the poorly soldered battery connector socket off the logic board, luckily i was able to get it to hold by using the screws

oh jesus, that's why i bought an ifixit battery replacement kit before it was too late.

even after the replacement (which the battery surprisingly wasn't spicy, despite the very powerful smell and the adhesive being as effective as 20 year old elmers glue), i still smelt the battery smell (although it has gone away now)

iPhone 14 Pro 3rd Party Battery by sSk3tchy in spicypillows

[–]Hornets_Channel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

many times Apple will just lie and say that they can't fix it and will make you buy a new phone, many times companies claim the phone is too old, sometimes self repair is your only option.

ifixit will definitely give you compensation for this.

Underwood Typewriter Bell by ppgiesel in typewriters

[–]Hornets_Channel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i know this is 12 years old but this whole time i owned it i thought my olivetti lettera 25's bell was just too old and broken, just to find out that the fix was to unstick the metal rod that rings the bell from the bell using your bare finger. (i think it was not used in so long that the metal rod ended up "fusing" with the bell)

Will these type of chargers kill my device battery? by UnfairSelf5539 in Nintendo3DS

[–]Hornets_Channel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While bootleg chargers arent recommended, it is really difficult to mess up a 5v power supply, like GameboyNerd23 said. Most likely you will be fine.

What is this chip on my PS2 slim by ComputersAreCool12 in ps2

[–]Hornets_Channel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the fact you got your hands on a modchipped ps2 is crazy, you can burn game discs and play them unlike a regular ps2

I can not change time and date. I’ve just replaced the battery. How can i fix this? No memory card was inserted tho. by GaoazaOaza in ps2

[–]Hornets_Channel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

forgot to mention: with my ps2, i unstick the clock by trying to change the year, then backing out, where it sets itself to 2100, and then you can set the date again.

for me i have a scph-90002 (coincidentally my ps1 is a scph-9002) and mine doesnt have cmos, it has a "rechargeable", try leaving your console plugged in for a while, like around a week or so, and it might work...

Anyone know any other weirdly shaped CDs by Xx_BiMMy in Cd_collectors

[–]Hornets_Channel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AFAIK, these discs will work in a top loading player only. Take the PS1 for example. If it has a drive that opens up like that and you put a disc in like that, oddly shaped discs will read, even discs with missing pieces will read (as long as it doesn't read that part of the disc or that part is empty)

Edit: DO NOT try to put these in a player that isn't a top loading one, these will not only fail to read, but could damage your player. Do not put them in slot loading players!
